UK payroll - Turn off automatic journal posting for payroll
As the automatic journal for payroll is not able to be viewed before posting to accounts, we should have the option to turn off automatic journals. Currently, we have to post, then go back and do another journal to split out ER NI & Pension for different departments. This system is so unflexible.

Invoice Template - Setting for Decimal format
Invoices Australia
An update in the last few months bought inconsistency into the invoicing format in terms of the decimal points on the unit pricing. It would be good to be able to define this - to two, three, four decimal points so that there is consistency on the invoices rather than some units at two and some at four decimal points.10 votesWe're grateful for your engagement and letting us know the changes that matter to you.

Reporting - Trial balance split by category
"Please provide or enable a template that allows the generation of a Trial Balance report with account groupings categorized under the same headings like Profit and Loss statement and Balance sheet."
2 votesThanks for sharing your idea, and letting us know the changes that matter most for you.
We've reviewed your idea to show the Trial Balance by category and now it's up to the community to get behind and support it.
In the meantime, did you know that you can group the Trial Balance by 'Account Class' or 'Account Type'? Whilst not the exact functionality requested, these options allow you to split the accounts up within the report.

Bills - Automatically adjust the date on imported draft bills to a set date
We use Xero on top of a project management system (Deltek PIM) which generates employee expenses and supplier invoices. When we export them to Xero they sit as draft bills which we approve. If users of PIM enter an invoice/expense for a prior period, the transaction has to be redated in Xero to prevent it changing the historic management accounts. My suggestion is that there is an option within Draft Bills that would redate draft transaction dates (before posting) to a given date, say 1st of the open period.

Reporting - Allow Standard users to publish reports
Provide an option to allow standard users to publish bank reconciliation reports, but not all reports.
As a Xero Advisor, I don't always perform all of the accounting functions for my clients. For some clients we mutually prefer to have them perform the bank reconciliation process each month. This is a standard internal control that isn't always outsourced. Requiring publishing bank reconciliation reports at the Advisor level user seems overkill and limits how advisors can manage levels of service assumed by the advisor and their clients.

Quotes - Automatic pre-loaded descriptions for specific customers when creating a quote
Option to have pre-loaded descriptions for specific customers when creating a quote. The description should automatically be present when each customer is selected rather than having to select a code to load it.

Expense claims - Item field
Xero Expense claims do not provide the field "Item" when submitting an expense claim for small items of inventory purchased infrequently. This means the inventory items purchased via expense claims will not show up on the reports "Inventory Item Details" and "Inventory Item Summary" reports" and a separate reconciliation just on expense claims will need to be run in order to account for the true inventory balance.
2 votesHi Camilla, thanks for your engagement on this idea regarding an item field in expense claims. We know that it's not possible to add an inventory item directly to an expense claim and the current process to track inventory for an expense is to raise a bill instead. 📊 The team is still looking at the best way to address your feedback, and while we can't promise a timeframe just yet, please know that we will be watching this to see how much interest it might generate 👀

Invoicing - Insurance / Surcharge Line at Bottom of Invoice
Summary:
Allow users to add a dedicated surcharge (e.g. insurance, card fee, handling) that appears as a distinct line below the subtotal on invoices, rather than as a regular line item.
Current LimitationAt present, any insurance recovery or surcharge must be entered as a standard line item. This:
Makes invoices look cluttered when the fee is not tied to specific products or services.
Can cause confusion for clients, who expect insurance/fees to be displayed separately (similar to how shipping or payment surcharges often appear).
Requires manual placement and formatting on each invoice, reducing efficiency and consistency.Proposed Solution:
Introduce…2 votesHi Joshua 👋It's really helpful for us to understand having the ability to add a surcharge or insurance line to invoices is a desirable option. We understand not having a dedicated field for surcharges or insurance can make it difficult to clearly communicate these extra costs to your customers. Currently manually adding a line item for the surcharge or using a custom branding theme to include the information are the only options💡Right now, we're not planning to add this as a specific feature, as our current focus is on some other features that will benefit a wider range of our customers, however we will monitor this for votes and comments from other users 📣

Bills - Option to add credit card surcharge
Nowadays everyone include a credit card surcharge when paying a bill. However when the bill is recorded originally, it is without the surcharge. When applying payment to the bill, if we are in the bill screen and we apply an amount higher than the original invoice it records as an overpayment and creates a credit note. There should be an option like in the bank rec screen where it allows us to type in the surcharge so that the surcharge takes the same character as the original invoice. Currently, I have to manually adjust the original invoice to include the…
5 votesThanks for raising your idea here, Carine. Can understand wanting a simpler option to add a credit card surcharge when adding a payment directly from the Bill.
Understand it's not the flow you're looking for here, but one option would be once the payment comes into your bank account you could use Find & Match to select the bill and in the second section you could use the Bank fee option for the surcharge like you mentioned.

Tracking - Assign Tracking categories for expense users
It would be useful to be able to assign default tracking categories to users for expense submission so these don't need to be manually added to each individual claim.
2 votesHello everyone, we understand that being able to automatically assign tracking categories to users for their expense claims would be a huge benefit, saving you time and ensuring accurate reporting. 📈
We've heard your suggestions we're continuing to monitor the interest in this idea, but it's not on our current development roadmap. We'll be sure to update you here if anything changes in the future. 👋

New invoicing - Remove invoice description character limit
Remove New invoicing description Character limit. Currently the limit is 4000 which isn't enough for large customer invoices.
26 votesHi everyone, thank you to everyone that participated in our teams survey from my last update. We appreciate your insights and these continue to help inform our teams of where they can best focus their efforts, as they continue to develop invoicing.
We don't have any plans at this stage to increase the Description field character limit from 4,000, however we're interested to continue tracking the interest in community and understand what the optimal amount of characters would be for our customers.
If there are any changes we will share an update with you all, here.

Quotes - Split quotes into multiple invoices with relationships and automatic “Mark as invoiced” functionality
Our work is often quoted at the project level, with invoices being issued monthly for the duration of the project until the quoted amount has been paid and the project completed.
Currently, we create the quote, and then subsequently create invoices - manually keeping track until the quoted amount has been invoiced, at which point we mark the quote as invoiced.
It would be helpful if;
- We could split the quote into N invoices automatically with the total invoiced amount over N invoices equalling the amount in the selected quote.OR
- When a quote is marked as accepted but…

UK Payroll - Auto enrolment postponements
When an employee has a postponed autoenrollment the pension doesn't prompt or show up until just before the payment run has been posted. Making any prior payroll reports and payslips incorrect as the pension then tags on at the end. So reports then need to be reprinted and balanced again.
Can the prompt no show up at the start of the pay run? This will then save any duplicated reports and potential incorrect payments.
Also the pension filing report viewable before the RTI posting.
Alternatively, enter the postponement date when posting the pay run in which the employee becomes eligible…

Profit & Loss - Ability to show percentages with Tracking Categories
On the Profit and Loss report there is no ability to show percentages, if tracking categories are used as a filter. We want to see COGS as a percentage of trading income, and Net Profit as a percentage of trading income.
3 votesHi Karen, thanks for submitting this idea. Showing percentages in the Profit & Loss report when using Tracking Categories would make it easier to see how different projects, departments, or locations are performing at a glance.
This feature would give you clearer insights and save time by reducing the need to export data and crunch numbers in spreadsheets.
This idea is now in the Gaining Support stage. If this would help your reporting, please add your vote or share your thoughts, it really helps the product team understand the impact.
We’ll keep this thread updated with any news.

copy transfer transaction
I would like to be able to copy a Transfer transaction.
When viewing a transaction on the "Transaction: Spend Money" screen, the "Options" menu includes a "Copy" function. However, when viewing a transaction on the "Transaction: Transfer" screen, the "Options" menu does not have the "Copy" function. Please add the "Copy" function in the "Options" menu on the "Transaction: Transfer" screen.

Projects - Increase bill description character limit when invoicing from a project
Please increase the character limit for line descriptions when generating invoices from Projects.
Right now, if a bill line has a description that exceeds the small character limit, it gets cut off on the invoice. I have to then manually open each bill, copy the full description, and paste it into the corresponding invoice line. Obviously this is extremely time-consuming and inefficient for something that seems like a relatively small backend fix that would make a big difference to everyday usability.
Is anyone else dealing with this?
2 votesHi there 👋, thanks for reaching out to our Xero Support team and clarifying the difference between your idea here from the one we merged to. Apologies for this oversight - I've restored your idea here.
While increasing the character limit of a bills description when invoicing from a project isn't something we have plans for atm, we can gauge the interest from community in this and will update you if there's any progression.

Add the receipts for "billable expenses" to the invoice created using them
When I invoice my client for expenses our staff have incurred which they have tagged as reimbursable by the client using the "billable expenses" feature, add the receipts attached to the items I am billing to the invoice. All clients expect the receipts to be attached and they are all in Xero, at the moment I have to laboriously manage them separately.

Select a date for credit note allocation
When allocating a credit note, either an invoice or bill, be able to set a date for the application, rather than defaulting to the date the credit note was created as it will fail occasionally when using lock dates.

eInvoice as default where available
While eInvoicing is a great addition, the need to toggle it for each invoice is annoying. It would be great if eInvoicing was the default for customers where it's an available. The need to toggle it every time is cumbersome.
